Seriously, it's 2016, stop it with the memes.
- evilsocket 11y agooh come on! it doesn't hurt smiling a little bit from time to time you know? :)
- acqq 11y agoUnfortunately often the only person smiling is the author, while others just cringe.
- hawleyal 11y agoSome people find them charming, and like a little chuckle with their articles.
- calebfenton 11y agomaybe you could make a chrome extension which blocks all forms of fun and frivolity. you could just hide images from various meme sites, maybe do some checksum comparisons?
- unlinker 11y agoI don't have anything against fun things, but seeing the same memes we have all seen every day for years now is not really funny.
- calebfenton 11y agoon one hand, I completely agree with you. on the other hand, i've had to make presentations and talks and the stuff just looks so dry and boring and people respond surprisingly well to old jokes. if you don't include any sort of lulz they just sit there thinking they're learning, but if you mix in a few memes, it helps wake them up and they start to pay attention.
- striking 11y agoI think a p-hash[1] would work better at detecting the same image... but what about a neural net that detects fun? That would probably be pretty enjoyable to write. 1: http://www.phash.org/ http://www.phash.org/
